I Will Be In Tears



This breaks my heart everytime I see the story either on the stage or on film. Big fan of the soundtrack but the fates of poor Fantine and Cossette break my heart worse than 'The Little Match Girl does. You knew my heart breaks easily right?

I've heard of this play, but I've never actually seen it. Maybe I'll watch it when I'm due for a good cry :)

I've never seen the musical. I've seen a few screen versions and have never read the book despite having more than one copy in my bookshelves.

I went to the touring Canadian stage production about 20 years ago -- fantastic! And I love the soundtrack. Can hardly wait for the movie -- Tom Hooper will do a magnificent job of directing it, I'm sure.

And I like Russel Crowe as Javert. You need a real live asshole for that role. I was surprised they didn't offer it to Christopher Bale.
